The commissioner of immigration ad-
vances the opinion that the inhabitants
of Dakota should not buy pound OF
sugar other than that grown in the soil
of Dakota. He holds that the sugar
beet can supply the local demand and
his testimony is:
There is no crop grown on the soil of
Dakota with more certainty OF prolific
yield than vegetables, especially beets.
With proper study the farmers OF Dako-
ta could rival those of Europe in the
production OF sugar beets. The climate
and soil unite in the moae favorable con.
ditions for the production of sorghum
This statement is not based upon theory
but upon large crops already produced
1t is probable that ere many years
have passed Dakota will not only supply
it's own people with sugar, but will give
the states tsir share of sweetness.

vote has done nothing TO further the
eau Sc of division. The only thing
hoped to be accomplished was to con-
vince congress that the sentiment OF Da.
kota was sufficiently strong In favor OF
division to cause that body to act upon
petition OF the divisionists to divide and
admit Dakota.
So it goes. The anti-diyisionists have
heretofore alleged that the people OF
Dakota did not know what they wanted
and partisan congress hos taken the
cue from them and said Dakota should
have nothing beca use of its uncertain
frame of mind. Dakota has saidit wants
division. The anita dodge the Issue
when it is forced upon them. We may
as well repeat the remark that Dakota
wants division and will have nothing
else. 1t does not care arye straw about
shaping the state to fit Aberdeen'l
capital ambitions.

The Washington correspondent of the

on to his paper:
Citizens of Dakota who voted 30
strongly In favor of toe division of their
territory on Tuesday and in favor OF
statehood OF the southern half OF it will
not resd with relish that their govern.
or, Church, is here trying to prevail up
on President Cleveland to recommend
in his message to congress that when
Dakota is admitted TO statehood, ID be
admitted as whole. He is opposing
division with vigor, although he knows
that large majority OF the people there
prefer the territory to remain as il is to
having ii admitted as whole, as there
is nothing homogeneous between the
northern and southern sections, and this
has not only twice been stated by their
votes at the polls, but delegations that
have been sent to congress during the
past ak years to set division OF the
territory on an east and west line have
repeatsu 1t as plainly as possible and
there hpe been no division OF sentiment
on the subject. Only those who oppose
statehood are advocating the admission
OF the whole territory.
This correspondent is gentleman
fully conversant with Dakota matters
He knows by personal observation tha
division is tne predominating sentiment
among the masses and that the opposi-
tion of az imported governor TO th,
popular demand tends to complicat.

ernor Church is proving himself traito
